The new short clip from DreamWorks Pictures’ People Like Us has Chris Pine and Elizabeth Banks sitting down for a crab lunch. Why? Probably because they’re hungry… Hitting theaters on June 29, 2012, this dramedy marks the directorial debut of screenwriter Alex Kurtzman (Transformers, Star Trek, Cowboys and Aliens) and features Olivia Wilde, Michael Hall D’Addario, Philip Baker Hall, Mark Duplass and Michelle Pfeiffer.

Watch the “Family Outing” clip:

The Plot:

From DreamWorks Pictures comes People Like Us, a drama/comedy about family, inspired by true events, starring Chris Pine as Sam, a twenty-something, fast-talking salesman, whose latest deal collapses on the day he learns that his father has suddenly died. Against his wishes, Sam is called home, where he must put his father’s estate in order and reconnect with his estranged family. In the course of fulfilling his father’s last wishes, Sam uncovers a startling secret that turns his entire world upside down: He has a 30-year-old sister Frankie whom he never knew about (Elizabeth Banks). As their relationship develops, Sam is forced to rethink everything he thought he knew about his family—and re-examine his own life choices in the process.
